Grinding 1 tbsp baking soda will do the cleaning trick and you just need to wipe it thoroughly. The effect? – Just try it.

10. Foreman Grill cleaner

The toughest job ever. When you are done cooking, press few paper towels between the surface and the lid. Remember to unplug it first. The heat will steam clean the whole grill. Wipe it dry with clean paper towel and see the results.

11. Destroying water rings is very easy

Soak up the moisture with a clean towel and then dry it out with a hair dryer. Everything will disappear.

All you need is a grapefruit cut in half. Sprinkle the half grapefruit and the tub with salt and use the fruit with salt. The rings will vanish.

13. A mattress cleaner

Pour some vodka into a clean bottle and spray it across your mattress. The alcohol will kill the bacteria that causes odor after it air-dries.

14. Dishwasher Cleaner

A cup of vinegar placed on the top shelf and sprinkling baking soda on the bottom will do the trick. You just need to run it again to clean the dishwasher.

15. Refreshing the leather furniture

The magic word would be, actually two words: Shoe Polish. All scuffs and scrapes will vanish.

16. Fan cleaner

Just wipe the fan blades with old pillowcase. Wipe them up from within that will keep the dust from inside.

17. Cleaning broken glass

Use piece of white bread and pick up the tiniest pieces.

A combination of water and baking soda will make a paste. Spread the past over the vomit and leave it overnight. The paste will be ready for you to vacuum it the next day.

19. Cleaning the blender

Warm water and dish soap, that’s all you need. Turn the blender on to blend and for a few seconds you will get a clean blender. Dump the cleaning material, run by it with clean water again and dry it off.

To clean a mildewed, soap scum encrusted shower curtain liner use two dish washing (for the dishwasher) pods and one cup of bleach in the clothes washing machine with hot water. It will be as clean as it was when new. Use your laundry basket to carry the wet curtain back to the shower and hang to dry.

A better way to clean your dishwasher and keep it clean is to fill up the rinse dispenser with vinegar instead of rinse agent. Been doing it for years with great results, no water spots and no harm to the machine.

The ceiling fan pillow case back works great! I clean homes for a living. I had to clean 7 ceiling fans the other day and used this method. I did however spray furniture polish inside the pillow case and it shined them up at the same time!!
